The Met Office’s longer weather forecast states: “Through the weekend and into next week it is likely to become more widely settled across the UK with a good deal of dry weather and sunny spells developing.

“However, occasionally the north and northwest may still be windy, with some rain at times.

“Though there may be some chilly nights, and it will feel cool under any rain in the northwest there will also be some warm days, especially in the east and southeast.”

Later on this month, a period of “dry, warm and settled weather” is forecast.
